The hook of Rites
《三礼》
The Book of Rites includes Yi Li,Zhou Li and Li Ji，entitled A Collection of Treatises on the Rules of Propriety and Ceremonial Usages in the five canonical works of the flan Dynasty. It mainly discusses the principles of conduct of the scholar-bureaucrats. Zhou Li，as' has been claimed，is a collection of the ca-nonical works of the pre-Qin Dynasty discovered in the Western Han Dynasty. It re-cords the six-class official system in the Zhou Dynasty. Li Ji is the interpretation of Yi Li，supplemented to the canonical works.
《三礼》指《仪礼》、《周礼》和《礼记》。《礼经》在汉朝的“五经”里指《仪礼》，主要讲士大夫阶层的礼仪。《周礼》据说是西汉早期发现的先秦古文经，这部书记述了周王朝六部官制。《礼记》是阐释《仪礼》的，最早以附记的形式写在经文后边。
